Statistische analyse van muziek

J. H. C. Lisman

Statistica Neerlandica, 1954, vol. 8, issue 2, 83-91

Abstract: This paper presents an application of statistical methods in analysing music. By counting the notes in pieces of music, frequency distributions are obtained and analysed. Particularly Bach's compositions are considered, which appear to be rather disciplined as to the use of the 12 notes in dependence of the key. Perhaps it would be possible to characterize different composers by means of these frequency distributions. Also a specimen of modern music without any key is discussed.
